BP Totty, your boring shopping spree reminds me of one day when I was in a store where most men wouldn’t come in there with their wives.
I saw a, well, unfortunate couple there and the husband was telling his wife loud enough for others to hear,
“Why am I the only husband to attend to all your shopping needs. Look around, there are no men here only myself!”. He told her next time she should take money from him and go herself.
It was very sad. She just can’t make ANY decision herself.
